2706 Huan’er Attacks
One of the brocade-clad young n who looked like the leader of the group said with bright eyes, “I’ll have this lady.” He looked at her lecherously without attempting to disguise it.
“Since Brother Li wants her, she’s, naturally, yours.”
“Brother Li, you’re so lucky this ti.”
The other two brocade-clad young n replied when they heard the other man’s words. Despite their words, their eyes flashed with reluctance and resentnt. They were from the sa clan, but the man who had spoken first had higher status than them. Moreover, they could only co out today because of this man. It was not that they could not co out if they wished. However, they did not have two Great Overarching Golden Celestials as bodyguards like this man.
Even when the two old n following the three young n saw Huan’er, their eyes flashed briefly. They had lived for a few thousand years, and yet, this was their first ti seeing such an attractive and beautiful woman whose face seed to be sculpted by the gods themselves. They had frequently seen the most beautiful woman in the capital of the Cloudy Rock Celestial Kingdom, but they had never been moved like they did when they saw Huan’er.
“Young Master Li,” one of the two old n said to the brocade-clad man who had spoken first, “If you bring such a beautiful lady back with you, you’ll certainly bring disaster to the clan if you bring her out. Let alone the others, if the Sixth Prince finds out that you didn’t offer such a beauty to him, he’ll definitely be displeased.”
“The Sixth Prince!” Young Master Li felt a jolt of fear as cold sweat ford on his forehead when he heard the old man’s reminder. Indeed, he was filled with desire and thoughts of how to possess the beauty before him. After all, she was unnaturally beautiful. However, the old man’s words were like a cold bucket of water being splashed on him. He knew there was no way he would be able to possess the beautiful woman before him. He thought to himself self-mockingly, ‘I, Nangong Li, am blessed enough to encounter such a beauty, and yet, I’m unable to possess her.’
The Sixth Prince ntioned by the old man was the sixth son of the King of the Cloudy Rock Celestial Kingdom and Nangong Li’s leader. Nangong Li was just an insignificant follower, who knew if the Sixth Prince even rembered his na?
The second old man suggested, “Young Master Li, if you offer this beauty to the Sixth Prince, perhaps, His Royal Highness might pay attention to you and consider you one of his close confidantes. It’s not a total loss even if you can’t possess her.”
“You’re right! The Sixth Prince won’t treat soone who brings benefits to him badly. If I offer His Royal Highness this beauty, he will certainly be pleased and might even place more value in .” Nangong Li’s eyes shone now that he had been enlightened by the two old n’s words. Then, he said, “Two elders, please kill that man first before capturing that lady. Rember not to hurt her. Otherwise, if the Sixth Prince is angered, not only I, but both of you will be affected as well!” He looked at Duan Ling Tian as though Duan Ling Tian was a dead man walking. Then, he turned to look at Huan’er with undiguised sexual thoughts.
anwhile, when the other two brocade-clad young n heard Nangong Li planned to offer the beauty to the Sixth Prince, the resentnt and reluctance in their eyes vanished. However, that did not stop them from looking at Huan’er lecherously.
It was only natural since Huan’er seed so flawlessly beautiful. Most ordinary n would be attracted to her.
“Yes, Young Master Li!” the two old n replied in unison. Then, they looked at Duan Ling Tian with killing intent.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
When the two old n made their moves, Duan Ling Tian’s expression darkened. It was not because the two old n’s speed was as fast as Great Overarching Golden Celestials. After all, based on their speed, they were only yellow-rank Great Overarching Golden Celestials at most. Their strength was comparable to Zhou Tong, the Revered Elder from the County Governor’s estate in Nine Specters County. He could easily kill Zhou Tong back then, let alone now. His expression had darkened because Nangong Li wanted to kill him. He had no enmity with Nangong Li, but Nangong Li wanted to kill him even though this was their first eting.
When the two old n charged toward Duan Ling Tian, Duan Ling Tian had also mobilized his Celestial Origin Energy. However, before he had a chance to act, a lodious voice said, “I prohibit you from killing Duan Ling Tian.” Although the voice sounded lodious, it was icy-cold.
When Duan Ling Tian heard it, he felt as though he was listening to the most lodious music in the world.
Nangong Li and the two brocade-clad young n were srized by her voice as well.
“Not only is she beautiful, but her voice is lodious as well!”
“It’s such a pity that we’re only able to see but not touch!”
All three of them lanted.
When the two old n heard Huan’er’s lodious voice, they paused briefly before they continued to charge at Duan Ling Tian at lightning speed to kill him.
Whoosh!
In just an instance, before Duan Ling Tian and the two old n could react, Huan’er seed to vanish into thin air before she reappeared before the two old n. She said coldly, “I’ve already said, you’re not allowed to kill Duan Ling Tian!” A palpably cold killing intent surged out from her body in all directions at this mont. It caused Duan Ling Tian and three young n standing in the distance to feel as though they had fallen into an icy pond during winter. They were chilled to their bones.
In fact, with their cultivation bases, it was impossible for them to be frozen even if they fell into a pond during winter. However, the cold aura from Huan’er seed capable of freezing them. All of them were shivering, and their lips had turned blue from the cold.
After a while, Duan Ling Tian discovered that the chill that shrouded him seed to have disappeared. He sighed in relief. He could not dispel the cold even when he released his Celestial Origin Energy earlier. The cold was truly terrifying. “Hmm?” Duan Ling Tian was taken aback when he lifted his head and looked at the two old n. They had been transford into ice sculptures, and it seed to be snowing! Moreover, cracks were forming on them.
Crack! Crack! Crack!
The cracks grew longer and longer, and it did not take long before the two old n shattered into icy shards!
Duan Ling Tian inhaled sharply. His gaze toward Huan’er, who was standing in the snow with her thin white robes fluttering in the air, had changed at this mont. She looked like a goddess of ice and snow at this mont, like soone who could not be desecrated!
Suddenly, Duan Ling Tian seed to have noticed sothing. He turned to look at Nangong Li and the two brocade-clad n. Nangong Li seed to be hurriedly crushing a Celestial Talisman.
Whoosh!
In just a second, Nangong Li seed to vanish into thin air.
Duan Ling Tian had clearly seen and recognized the markings on the Celestial Talisman. He exclaid, “It’s a Drifting Light and Shadow Talisman!”
The Drifting Light and Shadow Talisman could only be engraved by Celestial Dukes or those who are stronger. Moreover, the success of inscribing was less than 1%. In comparison to the Shadow Void Escaping Talisman that Duan Ling Tian had used that could only be inscribed by Celestial Kings or those who were stronger, the Drifting Light and Shadow Talismans were more common. It was available in most interdiate-rank Celestial Kingdoms. Naturally, these were only affordable to those rich clans and families. However, since they could not afford too many of them, only mbers and disciples with high status would receive one.
“No! Don’t kill !”
“Spare my life, fairy. Please spare my life!”
The two brocade-clad young n pleaded in unison when Huan’er turned her sights on them. Nevertheless, as soon as they had spoken, their bodies were frozen imdiately when Huan’er appeared before them. Like the old n, they were turned into ice sculptures and shattered.
After killing four n consecutively, Huan’er returned to Duan Ling Tian’s side as though nothing had happened. She said, “Duan Ling Tian, I can’t catch up to the other one.”
“He used the Drifting Light and Shadow Talisman so his speed is as fast as a Celestial Duke. It’s only natural that you can’t catch up to him,” Duan Ling Tian said knowingly.
Although the Drifting Light and Shadow Talisman was far inferior to the Shadow Void Escaping Talisman, it could grant the user with speed comparable to that of an ordinary Celestial Duke, bringing the user 100,000 miles away.
